The players of the away team seemed most concentrated when Ardy Musadeq stepped up to make the kick off in the second half. In the 51st minute, Lexi Pelangi hit a crossing free kick to the open man running down the field. Ardy Musadeq sent away a hard shot on goal in the 54th minute, but the ball went just over the crossbar and out. A very good chance. When Putra Delem's Ilham Sumpena in the 56th minute got a chance for a shot 56th didn't hesitate and placed the ball to the right of the goalie. A beautiful save bye Airmesu FC's goalie prevented a goal.

Poniman Idris was clearly disgusted with the effort of the defense and let the defenders know about it. After a defensive mix-up in Putra Delem's zone, Ardy Musadeq stole the ball and had only the goalie to beat. Poniman Idris came out of the goal and Ardy Musadeq tried to chip the ball over his head. To his dismay, the ball went over the crossbar and out of play. There were very few away supporters still in the ground by the end of the match. Most of them had left early, disgusted by the way their team had been torn apart. Airmesu FC fully deserved thier win.
